But all of you and particularly the heavy buffs did plenty. I did not look at the numbers as to sides but an overwhelming pounding was given by Allied forces.
Very well done in an ad hoc beginning and a resounding victorious end.

352nd Fighter Group C.O. (V) - "The Blue Nosed Bastards of Bodney" 487th Fighter Squadron (V)-HO 486th Fighter Squadron (V)-PZ 328th Fighter Squadron (V)-PE We have the whips - KILL THEM ALL
Made many 190's break down and away from the buffs, but just couldn't get enough lead into them to put them out of their misery. Those 190's maneuver like Extra 300's. I had lots of fun from my view point.
I made a decision at literally the last minute to fly buffs with sleepy. We, along with a couple of other buff drivers, blew the crap outta them!! I want to thank all the C47 drivers for a job well done. I can say that my gunners never called out a con all night and never fired a bullet. Great job by 23rd escort first sortie and by others second sortie. <S>
